Daughter sent us by UPS the book I mentioned in the post on young farmers by oldtanker yesterday. I was wrong on title. The title is "The Seasons on Henry's Farm" and is written by Henry's sister, Terra Brockman. Guess one way to sustain the farm is to sell books about it. To paraphrase an old saying, maybe "the pen is maghter than the tractor", LOL.
He grows 650 plus varieties of vegetable on 10 acres along a creek. I guess they were down the hill from where we drove in.
My parents practiced "sustainable farming" before, during, and after the Great Depression. Small farmers then had big gardens to live from and hoped to get cash from selling a cotton crop. Notice I said hoped. Parents switched to small dairy farming and selling buttermilk retail.
